I think that's all reaction videos in general. That's why this genre of youtube videos mean a ton to me. I would love to go back in time and experience an album for the first time. And if I can't do that, I'm going to watch another person's reaction and compare it to my own. Reaction videos have completely changed my opinion on music.
Unfortunately it wasn’t ever released on vinyl, but you can get a analogue cassette version if you look hard enough. But agreed, he’s going to loose his mind with all the distortion / noise.
This guy is the logical culmination of the "music reaction" UA-cam genre. He is the pinnacle of a video category plagued by the lowest of efforts. Something about the unconventional way he experiences music, completely immersing himself and not troubling with the nitty gritty, lends itself perfectly to this content. He even makes his own additions to the songs in real time. You can watch as the music washes over him, and see it flow through him. The rest can go home now. He's perfected the formula.
Love em both. Extremely different though, so it’s not like they are comparable. Fantano is a critic, and Mercurial is a viber who captures his raw experiences with the music.
Runaway was his “comeback song” after the whole taylor swift incident. he basically disappeared for a year and reappeared at the VMAs to perform this song - hence the toast to douchebags, scumbags, assholes - that’s what the media was calling him at that time makes the song even that much better when put into that context!
Can tell you’re talented just by how you add to the songs creatively and see patterns in music. You pick up shit in your 1st listen I’ve still not noticed having heard the song thousands of times.
I’ll never forget the first time I listened to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. I was already a massive Kanye West fan before the album dropped and it was my most anticipated album of that year. He also had probably one of the greatest lead ups to an album ever. Every Friday he would drop us a track as part of the G.O.O.D. Friday series as an build up to the album. I come from South Africa so generally we didn’t get everything as soon as it dropped in the states and this was way before the internet was today and instant reactions and reviews weren’t a thing so I visited the CD almost everyday to check whether the guys had the album in stock. And then one Friday, I went into the store and there it was. I was still in high school but I had saved up for this album and I bought it. I remember coming home telling myself that I’ll listen to the first few tracks on our old ass stereo system (it was older than me!) and then go make some food (I had just gotten home from school) and then listen to the rest of the album. 70 minutes later I was still sitting on the floor. I hadn’t moved. The thought of wanting to go made food has gotten consumed when by the time I got to Power. And when I heard people clapping I also started clapping as well because I knew that I had just listened to the greatest album of all time

the tempo is slightly sped up and the pitch is slightly higher than usual as well (probably just the vinyl being played slightly too fast) which might contribute to it sounding better (which it definitely does imo)

(GENIUS ANNOTATION) Runaway outro - The outro contains Kanye singing the first four lines of the hook through a vocoder. It begins with West mumbling something that sounds like “I'ma be honest…” before the vocal effects drowns out what is audible in his words, to the point. It could be interpreted that the purpose of the outro as a fantasy of escape through pure catharsis, with the vocoder literalizing Kanye’s ability to transform his personal shortcomings into art. As a result the words take on an emotional, primal, more visceral sound. Another interpretation was proposed by Chicago Sun-Times writer Thomas Conner, who wrote: The last four minutes find him humming and singing, but his voice is Auto-Tuned and distorted beyond perceptibility. What’s he saying or singing? Can’t really make it out, can’t really understand him. Which, no doubt, is how he feels his clumsy public statements are often received.
Or, he just wanted to turn his voice into a guitar tone. I doubt very seriously Kanye West thinks that deeply about any of his creative indulgences, as he indulges in them.
DO NOT let the negative reviews get to you. You’re bringing joy into the viewers lives. Enthusiasm, completely immersed & heart felt. Everything the world needs right now.
How many fucking cameras does this man own? edit: omg the tambourine you brought out for Hell of a Life sounded so good I came. You are a god edit 2: the last 5 minutes of this video were really moving. You're right. Simple as that. Art is art, what we enjoy we enjoyed, and that is life. Beautiful. Thank you so much for this and all your other videos. I can't wait to continue exploring this channel and to see whatever future experiences you share with us.
the production on yeezus feels so baffling to me - I dont know what to make of it, has anything sounded like it since? Is it genius? Would Mercurial feel the same?
Lost In the World is my favorite song of all time. To watch you embrace it (and anything you listen to) for the first time is nearly as moving as the first time I heard it myself. I'm grateful for that.
Man... if not anything else, watching this man’s passion is incredible. There are few better feelings in life than seeing someone deep into their passion and watching them enjoy the things you’re passionate about as well. Cheers mate.

“Yo Kanye I know you got a lot going on right now but watch this bro, it’s so good you’ll love it I swear.”
@@kingmasss3919 you just know he would instantly feel better about life. And we’d get another classic album
DO NOT let the negative reviews get to you. You’re bringing joy into the viewers lives.
Enthusiasm, completely immersed & heart felt.
Everything the world needs right now.
How many fucking cameras does this man own?
edit: omg the tambourine you brought out for Hell of a Life sounded so good I came. You are a god
edit 2: the last 5 minutes of this video were really moving. You're right. Simple as that. Art is art, what we enjoy we enjoyed, and that is life. Beautiful. Thank you so much for this and all your other videos. I can't wait to continue exploring this channel and to see whatever future experiences you share with us.
You need to listen to Pusha Ts DAYTONA!!! It was produced by Kanye West, a short but sweet album!
“This is the best thing I’ve heard in my life”
Me too, Mr. Mercurial, me too...
Me too
23:41 my parents when i play my music thinking its clean enough for them
Dude haha
I'm surprised he didn't point out the Iron Man interpolation in Hell of a Life
He did. He mentioned ozzy osborne

When the Runaway outro came i got chills for the 7393939 time... how can a song be this amazing..
This made me realize how much I enjoy this album. Great videos.
runaway is the best song of the 2010s and mbdtf the best album
🤔
You forgot sumn. LMFAO - Party Rock Anthem
@@SaVaG3d0ubleCup True!
Look at him, that’s what it means to truly love and feel music. It’s doing things to him physically. Kanye gave us a masterpiece
the production on yeezus feels so baffling to me - I dont know what to make of it, has anything sounded like it since? Is it genius? Would Mercurial feel the same?
Yeezus is a carbon copy of all experimental music so yes there has been music since you just have not bothered to explore it. No hate
This is the best video I have ever watched.
Lost In the World is my favorite song of all time. To watch you embrace it (and anything you listen to) for the first time is nearly as moving as the first time I heard it myself. I'm grateful for that.
Bon Iver’s contribution is incredible, such a true artist with innovative ideas yet only adding to a subsequent masterpiece
That stank face at 23:42 killed me 💀
Man... if not anything else, watching this man’s passion is incredible. There are few better feelings in life than seeing someone deep into their passion and watching them enjoy the things you’re passionate about as well. Cheers mate.
man, what you did with Runaway is easily the best addition I've seen you improvise to any song you've reacted to. Great stuff.
The end of blame game is crazier than you, I feel like it caught you off guard 🤣
What you did to Runaway through improvisation was the best thing you’ve done on your channel so far. Truly brilliant work man
I think you would greatly enjoy listening to Outkast Speakerboxxx/The Love Below!
...and I would enjoy watching you react to it
My man really adlibbed "golden showers" 🤣🤣🤣
I think you should do a Mike Dean episode, where you review all his work.
mercurial during the chris rock sketch with the “oh word?” face lmaoo
Honestly Lost in the World doesn't get talked about enough. This video is quite bittersweet I'm going to watch the whole series again lol
I got so much validation knowing you love Runaway just as much as I do lol
I'm on the edge of tears watching this
